Request more administrators

02-11-2008, 10:04 PM

Can we nominate some new admins to get something done with the server, and perhaps promote TG in some way to get games going again more consistently?
I'm not discrediting the current admins for what they've done, it just seems a lot of them are too busy to do anything anyone requests anymore whether it be server maintenance, or just play anymore.

I really, personally, feel Ag should have an opportunity with admin privileges, if he feels he is up for it.
He's clearly loyal, and looks for ways to improve the server, and has contributed to seeding the server countless times.
I think if he has some sort of FTP access as well, he could possibly figure something out with the server? We found one issue... The commander typing text causes massive server lag on NS_Tanith (Unsure if the map is relative to the situation).

Anyways, if I just haven't noticed I apologize, I still feel Ag should have the chance.

Couple things, one I agree with Ag for admin, except he admitted to me the lack of technical knowledge with which he could implement the solution the the current server problem. With that said I believe that Ag would be a good admin just to be an admin. Heck there didn't used to be any night where the server would go admin free... now it seems to be a consistent thing. He is always seeding, and often playing. Plus he looks at things in a fair nature and isn't quick to jump to conclusions.

Second. I still believe Wyz is the best candidate for the one to fix the server yet he said himself, he has not the time since his child has been born.

As for the other admins, the other day Kormendi mentioned that he had to download hlsw as he didn't even have NS installed anymore. And a quick check of steam tells me that poker hasn't been online since early January. It just seems to me like the admins of yesterday don't have time to play or just be admins (not discrediting their achievements and success). I did see zib on yesterday, and thane on not too long ago, but Squeak and Keres I haven't seen since I got back. I'm probably missing a few but that shows that they are not active either.

Also, no the map does not matter, we thought it was only on ns_lost for the longest time

Comment

I would also vote for aga as an admin. He is online all the time, and is fair minded, has the server and the TG ideals in mind when he plays, and has really put forth a lot of effort recently to keep the server up and running and good games going.
